Thought this was pretty cool

That is pretty cool. [Sarcasm font] Good thing we have an awesome first baseman. [/Sarcasm font]

Would have been cooler from 1876-2012.

[emkayseven]

look at how bad pinch hitters are (compared to old pinch hitters, not other positions)

Clutch is lacking in this generation of moneyballers claiming it doesn't exist. You can't tell them that!

[HUGG]

I don't think there's much rhyme or reason to PH numbers. Look at the rebound that's happening this season.

There's a crater like the last couple seasons in every decade except the steroid 90s

We're also very early in '12 still, and a lot of the PHers got spring training time. I'm sure the overall stats will dip once we get to the hot dog days.

Very cool graph though, I'm glad David spent the last week making it with construnctions paper at school while failing those children.

I'd be interested to see these numbers compared to the ebbs and flows of draft classes. Retirement of particularly strong draft classes could have something to do with it, as the supply of players would have temporarily gone down.
